Condizione: Gut. 476 p.: Ill. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Schutzumschlag berieben und weist Randläsuren auf, Bleistifteintrag auf Vorsatz, sonst guter Zustand / dust jacket rubbed and has edge wear, pencil entry on endpaper, otherwise good condition. - F.R. Leavis was undeniably one of the great thinkers of the twentieth century. His work on literature exerted a profound and lasting influence on the teaching of English throughout the world. The story of his life, as recounted by Ian MacKillop, who was one of Leaviss students, is therefore a chronicle of the development of the study of modern literature. When F. R. Leavis arrived at Cambridge just after the First World War, there was no separate faculty of English, but within a few years one was established and Leavis became part of the young team lecturing in the new subject. MacKillop charts the influences on Leaviss life and work, from I. A. Richards to T. S. Eliot and William Empson. He chronicles Leaviss famous public disagreement with C. P. Snow in the Two Cultures Debate; discusses the genesis and publication of Leaviss books; and looks at the development of both the influential magazine Scrutiny and the School of English Studies at Downing College. Leaviss views, although based on profoundly personal beliefs, were radical and combative. He and his provocative wife, Queenie Leavis, were never above the fray of battles waged inside the walls of Cambridge University. MacKillop paints an unforgettable picture of English village life as he chronicles this world of high tea, cloistered walks and bitter rivalries in great detail. By adding details of Leaviss private life to the public persona most people know well, F. R. Leavis: A Life in Criticism becomes one of the most revealing intellectual biographies of the late twentieth century. / Contents List of Illustrations Preface PROLOGUE: 1961 The Portrait The Secret Sharers Being a Critic PART ONE Culture and Environment 1895-1931 CHAPTER ONE ORIGINS 1895-1919 Into the City 1895-1910 Sixth Form at the Perse, Freshman at Emmanuel 1910-1915 War 1915-1919 CHAPTER TWO ENGLISH AT CAMBRIDGE I919-I924 Return to Cambridge 1919 The Original Cambridge English 19191926 Undergraduate and Postgraduate 19191924 Matters of Feeling: Forbes and Richards CHAPTER THREE EXCITING STRANGENESS I925-I93I Freelance 1925-1926 Modernism and Lectures 19271928 Precarious Terms 19281929 Poet-as-Leader, Minority Culture 1931 Doing Criticism 1931 PART TWO Stage Army 1931-1948 CHAPTER FOUR WE WERE CAMBRIDGE I93I-I932 Tm faced with a void 1931 Pioneer Performances 1932 The Year of Scrutiny 1932 CHAPTER FIVE to downing college 1931-1937 A New College 1931-1936 Downing English 19311936 Leaviss History 1936 Mil ton and Shakespeare 1937 Incipient Corruption? 1937 Wild, Untutored Phoenix 1937 CHAPTER SIX Scrutiny: Guarding the guardians 1932-1937 Guardians: Empson, Pound, Lawrence 19321933 Attack from Bloomsbury-by-the-Cam 1933 Leaving Richards 1934 Primers and Propaganda 19321934 Sensuous Experience: Joyce, Milton, Eliot 1933-1936 Poets 1933-1937 CHAPTER SEVEN WARTIME 1938-1948 Emergency 19381944 Persona Non Grata: Leaviss Occupation 19391947 Old Cambridge 1939-1947 Education: Ideal and Actual 1940-1943 Language and Tragedy 1944 New Bearings on English Fiction 19451948 PART THREE After the War 1949-1963 CHAPTER EIGHT NO COMMON PURSUIT 1949-1960 Function of Criticism 19491952 Virtue in Our Time 1950 Bloomsbury Again: Damned Humbug 1949-1951 The End of Scrutiny 19491953 Lawrence 19491955 Helpers 1955-1960 CHAPTER NINE THE SIXTIES: ORTHODOXY OF ENLIGHTENMENT 1960-1963 Approaching Retirement 1960-1962 Lady Chatterley and History 1960-1962 Before the Richmond Lecture 1959-1961 Against Snow 19621963 Retirement 1962-1963.
